Most-quoted passages
The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work. These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 2 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Provided, however, that the children of the said Edith Pearsol do not marry or be given in marriage to any of the children of my uncle Joseph Crawford, or to any of his grandchildren or great-grandchildren, or to any other lineal descendant of the said Joseph Crawford; hut, should any of the children of the said Edith Peai-sol marry any of the descendants of the said Joseph Crawford, the share, of my estate, of he, she, or they so marrying as aforesaid, shall go to and become vested in the other child or children of the said Edith, share and share alike.””
